Within each one of us lies untapped potential waiting to be unleashed. Most men go to their graves without realizing that potential.

My guest today, Strongman Chris Duffin, is not one of those men, and he's encouraging you how to unlock what has been dormant for so long in his new book, The Eagle and the Dragon.

Today we talk about what the Eagle and the Dragon signify in ourselves, stepping into fear and confrontation,

had to differentiate between functional and dysfunctional relationships, the pursuit of purpose and ultimately embracing strength and reinvention.

You're a man of action. You live life to the fullest, embrace your fears, and boldly charge your own path. When life knocks you down, you get back up one more time. Every time, you are not easily deterred or defeated.

Rugged, resilient, strong. This is your life, this is who you are. This is who you will become. At the end of the day, and after all is said and done, you can call yourself a man.

Gentlemen, what is going on today? My name is Ryan Nicler, and I am the host and the founder of the podcast and the movement that is.

Order a man, you know what we're all about here if you've been with us for any amount of time. It's all about giving you the tools and the conversations and resources you need to be a more capable man.

That's it in a simplest form, helping you become a more capable man. Myself as well, I'm inspired by what you guys are doing and how you're showing up in your lives and in your homes and in your businesses and communities and everywhere that you are showing up.

So I want to thank you for that. I do want to ask you very, very quickly if you would. Make sure that you go subscribe to our YouTube channel. We are just under 96,000, I believe, subscribers.

And we're really on this push to hit 100,000. So if it, well, if everybody went and just subscribed, we'd be well over that. We'd probably be closer to 200,000 subscribers.

So I'm asking you to go ahead and do that. Take care of that. Subscribe at youtube.com slash order of man. We're really starting to grow over there. And of course you'll get to see the video of me and my guests, which is an added feature and benefit. And hopefully it serves you on your path to become a more capable man.

Guys, not a whole lot going on today. I do want to make a very, very quick mention of one of my show sponsors and our friends over at Sorenx. Now for the month of December, they've decided to dub it dead.

And then we'll start with the year of December, as in dead lifts. Now my entire family is going to be participating in Sorenx's dead December. And also we're going to make this the physical challenge inside of the iron council, which is our exclusive brotherhood.

So if you want to get on the wagon with us and improve your deadlift, which I don't think it's out of the realm of saying that it will improve every facet of your life. We don't make decisions in a vacuum.

If you're going to get stronger physically mentally, you're going to get stronger. And of course that's going to pour over and manifest itself. And the results you see in your life. So head to Sorenx.com, so R I and E X dot com. And you can get a shirt and all

there are other stuff they have over there and learn about what they're doing for dead December. And then of course follow them on Instagram as well.

If you do want to join us in the iron council and participate in that challenge along with the topic of the month, which is processes and systems, then do that at orderman.com slash iron council.

So those are your marching orders. I gave you gave you three things. YouTube dot com slash order man subscribe, follow Sorenx get involved in dead December and then join us in the iron council again at orderman.com slash iron council.

All right, that's it. That's all I got by way of announcements. Let's get into the conversation. Chris Duffin. I know this is a man for many of you listening needs no introduction. He's been on the podcast before. I think it was roughly.

I want to say three years ago about. But with this new book coming out, the eagle in the dragon, which is an amazing title and what it stands for is even better.

Chris and I thought it would be good for us to sit down again for a revisit. He's one of the strongest men on the planet. A lot of you guys know that.
